学科素养·主题阅读
(说明:文中加黑词汇为本单元主题词汇)
(2022·新高考Ⅰ卷)Human speech contains more than 2,000 different sounds, from the common “m” and “a” to the rare clicks of some southern African languages.But why are certain sounds more common than others? A groundbreaking, fiveyear study shows that dietrelated changes in human bite led to new speech sounds that are now found in half the world's languages.
More than 30 years ago, the scholar Charles Hockett noted that speech sounds called labiodentals, such as “f” and “v”, were more common in the languages of societies that ate softer foods.Now a team of researchers led by Damián Blasi at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, has found how and why this trend arose.
They discovered that the upper and lower front teeth of ancient human adults were aligned (对齐), making it hard to produce labiodentals, which are formed by touching the lower lip (嘴唇) to the upper teeth.Later, our jaws changed to an overbite structure, making it easier to produce such sounds.
The team showed that this change in bite was connected with the development of agriculture in the Neolithic period.Food became easier to chew at this point.The jawbone didn't have to do as much work and so didn't grow to be so large.
Analyses of a language database also confirmed that there was a global change in the sound of world languages after the Neolithic age, with the use of “f” and “v” increasing remarkably during the last few thousand years.These sounds are still not found in the languages of many huntergatherer people today.
This research overturns the popular view that all human speech sounds were present when human beings evolved (进化) around 300,000 years ago.“The set of speech sounds we use has not necessarily remained stable since the appearance of human beings, but rather the huge variety of speech sounds that we find today is the product of a complex interplay of things like biological change and cultural evolution,” said Steven Moran, a member of the research team.
1.Which aspect of the human speech sound does Damián Blasi's research focus on?
A.Its variety. B.Its distribution.
C.Its quantity. D.Its development.
2.Why was it difficult for ancient human adults to produce labiodentals?
A.They had fewer upper teeth than lower teeth.
B.They could not open and close their lips easily.
C.Their jaws were not conveniently structured.
D.Their lower front teeth were not large enough.
3.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A.Supporting evidence for the research results.
B.Potential application of the research findings.
C.A further explanation of the research methods.
D.A reasonable doubt about the research process.
4.What does Steven Moran say about the set of human speech sounds?
A.It is key to effective communication.
B.It contributes much to cultural diversity.
C.It is a complex and dynamic system.
D.It drives the evolution of human beings.
命题角度——直接信息题:
信息筛选与组合(对接T1)
【设题特点】
① 题干不指向单一原文语句,而是需要从段落内2~3处分散的直接信息中筛选关键内容,再进行组合归纳。
② 正确选项需全面涵盖筛选出的关键信息,无遗漏或偏差;错误选项常“信息残缺”(只包含部分细节)“冗余无关”(添加原文未提及的内容)“信息杂糅”(混入其他主题的细节)。
【破题思路】
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍人类语音的演变与人类的饮食变化之间的关联研究。
1.D
2.C 细节理解题。根据题干可将解题信息定位到文章的第三段。根据第三段的内容可知,他们发现古代成人的上下门牙是对齐的,很难产生唇齿音,而唇齿音由下唇接触上牙产生。之后,我们下巴的结构变成了覆咬合结构,这让我们更容易产生这样的声音。由此可推知,他们的下巴构造使他们很难发出唇齿音。故选C项。
3.A 段落大意题。题干问的是“第五段主要讲述了什么?”,根据题干可将解题信息定位到文章的第五段。由第五段内容可知,对语言数据库的分析也证实,新石器时代之后,国际语言的发音发生了全球性的变化。第五段主要列出一些可以使研究结果更令人信服的证据。故选A项。
4.C 观点态度题。题干问的是“Steven Moran对人类语音有什么看法?”,根据题干可将解题信息定位到文章的最后一段。Steven Moran认为:自从人类出现以来,我们使用的语音不一定保持稳定,今天我们发现的各种语音都是生物变化和文化进化等事物相互作用的产物。由此可推知,它是一个复杂的动态系统。故选C项。
